Barani Design Announces New Wind Speed Sensor

July 18, 2011 - PRLog -- The residential wind sensor specialist has announced a new wind speed sensor that integrates a high response electronic wind direction vane onto is line of high accuracy wind speed sensors for residential wind energy applications.

Innovative packaging enables Barani Design's highly sensitive wind direction vane to measure wind direction with better than 1 degree accuracy and with a very high response rate. The wind direction vane features a remotely adjustable magnetic sensor with 9bit accuracy (512/rev or 0.7deg) and no dead band.

This wind vane’s zero friction design provides uniquely high sensitivity to wind direction changes for accurate wind direction and air turbulence measurements. Due to their accuracy and relatively low cost, these combined anemometer and wind direction sensors are especially suitable for monitoring wind flow rates for residential wind energy applications.

This high sensitivity wind vane is possible due to a unique integrated design featuring a programmable non-contact magnetic hall sensor. Beside the anemometer wind speed sensor and wind direction vane, this anemometer sensor package may feature an integrated temperature, humidity and barometric pressure sensor as part of the Atmo line of wind sensor and data logger products.

Other notable features of this Atmo line of anemometer sensors are its complete digital intelligence as well as the memory necessary for signal linearization of wind speed, temperature, humidity and barometric pressure. When combined with a Barani Design wind data logger and Atmo software, this sensor suite provides a wind energy assessment solution with unsurpassed plug-and-play easy of use for the average consumer.
